  • Constructing and Contesting the Echo Chamber: a Study of Print Media Discourse on the Final Year of the 1976-1983 Dictatorship in Argentina
    Constructing and contesting the echo chamber: A study of print media discourse on the final year of the 1976-1983 dictatorship in Argentina Muireann Prendergast This thesis is submitted in part fulfilment of the academic requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Professor Helen Kelly-Holmes Dr. David Atkinson Submitted to the University of Limerick, September 2018 i External Examiner: Prof. Michał Krzyżanowski, University of Liverpool and University of Örebro Internal Examiner: Dr. Cinta Ramblado, University of Limerick ii ABSTRACT For post-dictatorship countries attempting to come to terms with and understand their past, historical media studies have a particularly important role to play. In identifying discursive strategies, objective and subjective versions of events, and key social actors, they not only contribute to the linguistic debate on how "meaning" is produced in media but can have wider implications at the societal level in the construction of "collective memory" and identity (Achugar, 2007). The 1982-1983 period marked the end of a brutal dictatorship, Argentina’s Proceso de Reorganización Nacional (National Reorganization Process) and a difficult period of transition to democracy for the country following defeat in the 1982 Falklands/Malvinas War. Using a Critical Discourse Analysis framework, this research project analyses the role of the print media in both sustaining and challenging the dictatorship in Argentina during its period of crisis. The methodological approach of this study is mixed, combining the qualitative principles of the Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA) (Reisigl and Wodak, 2009) with a quantitative corpus-assisted discourse analysis of newspapers that supported the regime. Furthermore, a Synchronic-Diachronic method developed by Argentinean linguist Pardo (2008, 2010) for specific application to her country’s media is employed for qualitative study of newspaper discourse opposing the dictatorship, while a multimodal analytical framework is applied to the political cartoons of the period.

  • Bearing Witness in the Face of 'Overwhelming Evil': the Role of The
    Bearing Witness in the Face of ‘Overwhelming Evil’: The Role of the Buenos Aires Herald During the Argentinean Dictatorship Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lisa Dieckman, B.A. Graduate Program in Latin American Studies The Ohio State University 2019 Thesis Committee: Ana Del Sarto, Adviser Abril Trigo Terrell Morgan Copyright by Lisa Dieckman 2019 Abstract The Buenos Aires Herald has a rich history in Buenos Aires, Argentina as a long- standing English-language newspaper that actively bore witness to the repression of the 1976 to 1983 military dictatorship. In production since the 1800s and the sole English- language newspaper from 1959 until its closure in 2017, the Herald provided news, community updates, and credible journalism to the English-speaking community in Argentina and the world. The Herald is survived by its human rights legacy during the military dictatorship in the 1970s and 1980s. From 1976 until 1983, Argentina was under the control of a military dictatorship, characteriZed by state-sponsored terrorism and the severe repression of human rights. For the eight long years of the dictatorship, the majority of the Argentinean press failed to report on the human rights abuses taking place, instead reporting the official position presented by the military or not reporting on the events at all. However, one newspaper in particular consistently reported the truth of the events taking place throughout the entirety of the dictatorship. The Buenos Aires Herald was able to document the repression and state-sponsored terrorism taking place during the dictatorship while most other papers were censored and forced into silence.

Um discurso argentino escrito em inglês: a Guerra das Malvinas nos editoriais de Buenos Aires Herald An argentine discourse in english writing: Falkland War in editorials of the Buenos Aires Herald César Luis Tato Díaz Professor da Universidad de La Plata [email protected] Resumen Este artículo se propone dar cuenta del rol particular protagonizado por el diario The Buenos Aires Herald durante el conflicto bélico del Atlántico Sur. Aquí se estudia la “voz institucional” del medio, a cargo de quienes ejercieron la dirección en esos momentos. Ni bien comenzada la guerra de Malvinas, el por entonces director James Neilson se exiliaría en Uruguay. Consecuentemente, la dirección recayó en Dan Newland, quien es una fuente de primera mano para el presente trabajo. De esta forma, se explora minuciosamente no solo el discurso sostenido por el diario, sino que también se investiga la “cocina” del tabloide, arribando a conclusiones que a priori pueden resultar inesperadas, sin embargo, por lo indagado pueden constituir un aporte interesante para apreciar el posicionamiento editorial de un matutino escrito en inglés en la Argentina de 1982. Palabras Clave: Malvinas. Buenos Aires Herald. Discurso. Periodismo.

  • Administration of Barack Obama, 2016 Remarks with President
    Administration of Barack Obama, 2016 Remarks With President Mauricio Macri of Argentina at the Parque de la Memoria in Buenos Aires, Argentina March 24, 2016 President Obama. Well, good morning. It's humbling to join President Macri at this poignant and beautiful memorial in honor of the victims of the Argentinian military dictatorship and the suffering their families have endured. This park is a tribute to their memory. But it's also a tribute to the bravery and tenacity of the parents, the spouses, siblings, and the children who love and remember them and who refuse to give up until they get the truth and the justice they deserve. To those families: Your relentlessness, your determination has made a difference. You've driven Argentina's remarkable efforts to hold responsible those who perpetrated these crimes. You are the ones who will ensure that the past is remembered, and the promise of "Nunca Más" is finally fulfilled. It takes courage for a society to address uncomfortable truths about the darker parts of its past. Confronting crimes committed by our own leaders, by our own people, that can be divisive and frustrating. But it's essential to moving forward, to building a peaceful and prosperous future and a country that respects the rights of all of its citizens. Today we also commemorate those who fought side by side with Argentinians for human rights. The scientists who answered the call from the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo to help identify victims in Argentina and around the world. The journalists, like Bob Cox, who bravely reported on human rights abuses despite threats to them and their families.
